How many inches of subgrade and subbase below 4in backyard concrete?
I told my contractor the stone yard recommend put the sand on top of the roadbase to make it flat. My contractor told me sand would stick to the shoes when walking inside the concrete on the day work is done, and when lifting the feet while walking inside the concrete, the sand may get into the surface of the concrete. Thanks for your advice.

Adrianne C on Jun 22, 2014It sounds like he may have practical experience the stone yard wouldn't actually have. If he is qualified, and follow your local codes and regulations, perhaps he knows what he is talking about If you want a second opinion, you should ask someone in the same profession, not necessarily a competitor.Helpful Reply
